About
Set within the highly sought-after Beam Park development, this exceptional one bedroom second floor apartment in Somerville House offers sleek, contemporary living with a finish that feels as good as it looks.
Built in 2022 by respected developer Countryside Homes, the property remains in immaculate, show-home condition and comes with approximately six years remaining on the NHBC warranty.
With an impressive 992-year lease and the added advantage of no onward chain, this is as straightforward as moves come.
The building itself makes a strong first impression, with welcoming communal areas, secure video intercom entry and lift access to all floors - because convenience should start at the front door.
Inside, the apartment continues to impress. A bright and inviting hallway leads to a beautifully designed open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, perfectly balancing style and practicality.
The kitchen is fitted with integrated appliances and contemporary cabinetry, seamlessly flowing into the living space - ideal for everything from quiet nights in to hosting friends who will inevitably ask where you found it.
The private balcony is a particularly generous size, offering the perfect spot for morning coffee, evening unwinding or a little fresh air without leaving home.
The bedroom is a well-proportioned double, calm and comfortable, while the family bathroom has been elegantly appointed with modern finishes that feel both stylish and timeless.
Location-wise, it ticks all the boxes. With excellent access to the A13 and just 0.9 miles from Dagenham Dock station, commuting into the City is refreshingly straightforward.
Turnkey, chain-free and finished to a standard that needs no improvement - this is modern London living done properly.
